A major Democratic-aligned super PAC trolled President Donald Trump on Monday to make a point about White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon's influence in the White House.

The super PAC, American Bridge, rolled out a Google Chrome extension that replaces every mention of "Trump" with "Steve Bannon," a not-so-subtle attempt to show the influence the adviser has in the White House.

In a statement, American Bridge Vice President Shripal Shah told Business Insider that the extension was meant to show the "power" Trump has ceded to his controversial adviser.

"But it also comes with a warning: Anyone who thought the news about the Donald Trump administration was terrifying should exercise extreme caution when reading about the reckless and bigoted policies ordered by president Bannon," Shah said.

Shah also echoed top Democrats, including House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, in referring to Bannon as a "white supremacist."

"The dangers of having a white supremacist running the country can't be overstated, and we're already seeing the consequences," Shah said. "We're going to hold this administration accountable moving forward."

Bannon has played an active role in the early days of Trump's administration.

The former head of the right-wing news website Breitbart quickly got himself inserted in the National Security Council's principals committee, a panel of interagency leaders that generally shuns political operatives in order to keep national-security matters free from politics. Bannon also helped craft Trump's executive order that temporarily barred people from seven majority-Muslim countries from entering the US.

The Washington Post reported on Saturday that Trump had noticed Bannon's rising media profile, inquiring specifically about a recent Time magazine cover story dedicated to Bannon. "Saturday Night Live" even picked up on the theme, portraying Bannon as a grim reaper manipulating Trump.

Democrats have cast Bannon as a nationalist Karl Rove. Rove was a top political adviser to President George W. Bush known for cutthroat political tactics.

Shortly after Trump announced his intention to make Bannon a top figure in his administration, 170 Democratic members of Congress signed a letter urging Trump to reconsider the appointment because of Bannon's "ties to the white nationalist movement."
